 * Keep. Clear pass of WP:NAUTHOR #4c. Article has many problems, including a resume-like list to which I have added a warning template in 2014. That said, the data is factual, just not organized right. An occasional word is WP:POV. The problems do not rise to the TNT-level and AFDISNOTCLEANUP. The claims by nominator, other than that it is tagged, are plainly untrue. Did I already mention that AFDISNOTCLEANUP? Well then, AFDISNOTCLEANUP and these nominations of notable subjects keep coming. gidonb (talk) 03:02, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - I think the article's subject fails to meet WP:NAUTHOR to be honest, or might possibly meet in the future but is WP:TOOSOON based on being shortlisted in 2023 for the Ned Kelly Awards but not actually winning. There are some reviews online (1, 2, 3) for the same work, but if all of the unreferenced material is removed then we are left with a stub of 2-3 sentences and I am not confident the coverage is really enough for notability. The 2 other references on the article from 2010 and 2012 are for a Turing Foundation prize which does not seem to be considered notable and making a shortlist but again not winning an award respectively. The rest of the material appears to be somewhat promotional and/or based on primary information. - Indefensible (talk) 06:18, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep - notable for his Turing Award. The Turing Award is the preeminent award for Dutch language poetry. See nl:De_Gedichtenwedstrijd (Google Translate English version).

 * It seems pretty niche honestly, 10k Euros (and now only 5k Euros) is not a big prize. But I guess keeping this article depends on whether that award is notable enough. - Indefensible (talk) 16:12, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
